Cooper Hurley Injury Lawyers operates from multiple locations including 200 Kellam Rd #101, Virginia Beach, VA 23462, specializing in representing pedestrian accident victims. Their attorneys emphasize that pedestrians lack the protection of seatbelts and airbags, making them particularly vulnerable to catastrophic injuries when struck by vehicles. The firm identifies distracted driving, speeding, failure to yield, and intoxicated driving as common causes of pedestrian accidents, while pursuing compensation for medical expenses, rehabilitation costs, lost wages, reduced earning capacity, and pain and suffering. Their legal team cautions against accepting premature insurance settlements, which often undervalue long-term damages, and emphasizes the importance of documenting evidence, seeking immediate medical attention, and contacting an attorney before providing statements to insurers. Known as “The Car Crash Experts,” Cooper Hurley has secured substantial settlements for pedestrian accident victims, including the largest reported recovery for a single-car accident in 2020—$6.5 million. They offer free consultations at (757) 333-3333 and work on a contingency fee basis.

Preston, Wilson & Crandley, PLC serves pedestrian accident victims from their Virginia Beach office at 2404 Potters Rd., Suite 500, Virginia Beach, VA 23454. Their experienced personal injury attorneys handle cases where pedestrians have been struck by vehicles, focusing on the complex legal principle known as the “eggshell plaintiff rule.” This doctrine holds negligent drivers responsible for the increased severity of a plaintiff’s pre-existing medical condition, though not for the pre-existing condition itself. A common example involves pedestrians with prior neck problems who suffer whiplash injuries in accidents, making them eligible for compensation for the worsening of their condition. The firm’s attorneys help determine whether plaintiffs have pre-existing medical conditions and whether their treatment and suffering were directly caused by the accident. They guide injured persons through making insurance claims and represent them in litigation when necessary. For a consultation about your pedestrian accident case, call (757) 486-2700.
